"And that's basically what happened to me for ten months"
"That you survived is amazing, now then we'll take care of your fellow prisoners you are staying in medical, but don't worry we'll let them know you're alive, do you want them to know your Obuchi identity or not?"
"No I don't, if I ever decide otherwise I will tell them in person"
"Understood"
"Oh you guys might want back up on this considering just how dangerous the enemy is this time, though hopefully this will send them a message and they won't take any more slaves"
"Then we'll definitely be having backup to send them the message that slavery will not be tolerated, now then time for you to have a little nap"
"Ha..."
Obuchi was given medicine to put him to sleep so that they could take care of his injuries without any unintentional fighting
"Okay now then you guys had best get going if you're going to keep the promise to him"
"How long will he be out?"
"Several hours depending on several things, for now we're simply going to see if we can pop his shoulder back into place but if not we're going to have to do surgery"
"Understood"
Five hours later Rescue Force and Rescue Fire with the help of several police officers had managed to free the slaves and deal a huge blow to the current enemy and let the former slaves know that Akeshi Kazuhiko was fine
"Where is he then?"
"He's at our base getting medical treatment, the reason behind that is because we have better means of treating his injuries then regular hospitals do"
"He's truly alive still?"
"Yes, he's truly alive still and insisted we free you guys as soon as possible"
"Thank goodness, thank you for letting us know"
"No problem"
Rescue Force and Rescue Fire then return to their base and discover that Obuchi did in fact need surgery to take care of his shoulder because it turned out that his shoulder hadn't been dislocated as the only injury when he had saved another person but for doing that he got a beating and they shattered his shoulder with pipes and as such he needed surgery not only to put his shoulder back in place but to also see what bones could be put back in position and which needed replacing with something else that acted like bone but was stronger and would allow him to return to being a firefighter after recovery
"Hopefully he'll accept that he's being transferred to another station when he finds out"
"Actually his department changed their mind about station changing, at least for now"
"But..."
"There's a reason why they're changing things from before, I was called to talk to them about something else and his transfer came up and they realized that Obuchi really does need to be at the station while they're changing several different things about how the department is now going to work and at least at a station he's familiar with he'll have people who can help stabilize him in that regards, though he really was going to be transferred soon with his promotion that we presented to him"
"That makes sense then"
Obuchi would wake up to discover the transfer that would be happening once everything was settled and he was healed up and he accepted it knowing that it would have to happen at some point. Unfortunately the transfer would never happen as planned because he got a Rescue Force mission before returning to active duty in the fire department and was killed in action for real this time. He had been involved in a major explosion and had gotten out of the building alive but seriously injured and as such needed surgery which he didn't survive. At the funeral his new team vowed to continue the work they began and that while they were going to get a new member they would never forget Obuchi, it having been decided that R2 would now be field captain until retirement. At the funeral Homura Tatsuya, Megumi Yuma, Yuki Ritsuka, Aoi Tsubasa, Watari Jun, Taiga Riku, Todoroki Hikaru, Jinrai Kyosuke, Kozuki Rei, Shiraki Juri, Ishiguro Eiji and Obuchi's new team members all saluted alongside his old coworkers at the fire department and after their day of mourning they went back to work in honor of Obuchi's choice. Over the years Rescue Force and Rescue Fire members changed as older members retired or were killed but Obuchi's story was never forgotten as a reminder of what could happen if a Rescue Soul was twisted into something that wasn't meant to be and every year on the anniversary of his actual death he was remembered for everything he had been and how he had returned to the light and died as a rescue member, during that time other members were honored as well and the mission would always be continued and everyone knew that
